Tim Thanx for the kind wish's,
Well i wouldn't take a bet on it myself,i thought we would have had a better season last year than we did.It wasn't through lack of effort or prep,I,m told everyone has a mare of a season sometime,i really hope last year was mine and we can get on with racing this year instead of the endless engine, gearbox and diff rebuilds.I am not doing any where as near the racing i tried to do last year.I am going to be at my Local Castle Combe quite a bit this year looking forward to just the two hours up the M5 instead of 4 or 5.How is your car looking after the big head install is it a big leg up from a class B car ? see you at Neil Garners

didn't get the heads installed yet so will be running as last year with a little bit of weight loss and a very small increase in power, so its going to be tough,i will just have to rag it harder. getting very excited now. looking forward to running in the future classics aswell, going to do snetterton, brands, spa, and donny as definates and as many others as i can make if they don't clash with dtech or holidays.

See you at Snett Tim and possibly Brands, but don't think I can afford Spa this year - how do you do it?!?

Tim - you should go to the family planning clinic!
Perry - I shall be at Combe too in July + Donny, my second favourite circuit despite my mega pirouette at Craner Curves in 2011 with DTEC!

had mine on joolz rollers today. the old dog survived, with a bit of reluctance to play ball to start with, but ran great once a bit of fiddling.
